[resolved] No Archives Template (3 posts)

    Following the directions at http://codex.wordpress.org/Creating_an_Archive_Index (I think)...

    I already see an archive.php file both on my host server and in the theme editor in WP. However, when I go to add a page, I don't see it as a template in the drop down. In fact, I can only see 'One Column, no sidebar' .

    Am I missing something (probably obvious)?

    I'm using a child version of Twenty Ten if that is helpful.

    That's a good tutorial.

    You'll notice that the instructions say to create a new template file named archives.php. Paste in that code and save in your theme's directory. Then you'll be on your way to use that new template.

    Twentyten does not have a built in archives template. The archive.php template falls into the WordPress template file hierarchy, it's not a page template.
